A godroll MultiChad has it beat by an extra 5m of course, but if you don't have a Model 8, Accurized, Iron Reach & Range MW MultiMach, this is THE best pvp smg you'll get your hands on now.

No, I'm thinking of the same person. SkillUp (Ralph) is the brother of the guy (Sam) who runs Laymen Gaming and regularly joins him for his reviews. And LG has had such banger videos like "'Woke' media, please STFU about PewDiePie" and called the most recent terminator movie 'Terminator: Woke Fate'.

I checked out of SkillUp and MarcoStyle just when they were going beyond their usual content creator stuff and all in on the cringey social commentary. But enjoy SkillUp.

I hate the time spent = players love them. Lost Sector grinding for better rolled exotics is probably the worst part of destiny, because while the odds are real low to get what you want it's still the highest in the game. So you're looking at spending hours with no progress towards whatever you want, with very little progress on other things like weapon levels.

I spent 4 hours of sub-3 minute runs trying to get a pair of not-48 gloves after accidently claiming them from the legendary campaign. I wound up getting 1 pair. It desperately needs a focusing option like trials/gambit or a massively increased dropped rate.

I'm not going to even try legend until I'm maxed out. Hoping one of the easier sectors comes up with the slot I need eventually, the addition of lightbearers to the throne world on top of champs is insane.

It's gloves today until reset. I did them back when it was exodus garden though.

Related, the throne world litst sectors aren't that bad for farming imo.

I’m just waiting for Master lost sectors because the drop rate on those feels really good, like an exotic every 5-10 runs.

Edit: Gonna challenge myself to not equip Gjallorhorn and beat Legendary Campaign on my Titan. Kind of getting annoyed at the P2W exotics beating the game for me.

I just got done grinding for better hunter gloves, walked out with nothing but 100k glimmer and a few enchancement cores. :shepface:

But the WAU!!!

I quit because I got tired of it, and now I'll be mad about it until the next gloves lost sector pops into rotation.

Slide 2: always play test no matter what

Slide 3: (sells out to Sony)

Slide 4: (never play test own game)

Sepulcher is stupid because of the middle room. You have a shield champ who backs in there as well as an unstoppable ogre and an acolyte lightbearer, so if you can't insta-kill the shield champ before he gets in, he and the lightbearer just keep coming back while the ogre spams eyebeams.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ofv4rggYldo

This is how it's supposed to be done but I suck and have no idea how her Gjally is wiping everything out straight away - i end up getting pinned by the doorway to the mid room and then the ogres and thralls stop me getting in there long enough to finish the shield champ or lightbearer.

You can get the barrier champ in the little hallway, and the ogres/lightbearers don't seem to spawn until you kill certain adds. So I blitzed the barrier, then the unstop when he spawns, then the lightbearer. I ran unstoppable pulse, arbalest, and heavy lfr so with finders I could just heavy everything down. I think it was arc burn when I did it so insidious and whatever the arc lfr is called that I only keep around for match game/burns.

The solution to that barrier champ is to lob a grenade at the acolytes, jump over them, and stuff a rocket down his throat to stagger him. Then swap to arbalest and finish him off, he dies after one or two shots depending on accuracy.

Technically it's not just that barrier, it works on everything in that lost sector.

could be using the CWL mod Argent Ordnance plus having Gjally catalyst gives you 2 rockets in the mag and Wolfpack Rounds+

Lipstick Apathy
Does the thing still work where you stuff engrams then decode on “arms day?” If so, stuff engrams on easy days, decode on arms day.

Stuffing engrams means having your engram slots full so that the exotic drop from the LLS goes to a postmaster slot. You can build up a bunch of these, they (used to) decode into whatever armor piece the lost sector gives on the day of decoding, not the day you earn them.

Be a bit cautious til you learn what’s going on, check DIM a bunch so you don’t lose stuff, plan your re-stuffing (make sure you have enough primes or umbrals in postmaster that you can refill your engram slots if you want to open some exotics, for instance). Regular and exotic engrams decode instantly (like from postmaster) as long as you have at least one engram slot free in inventory. Prime and umbrals will go to any empty inventory engram slots, and require Rahool or war table to decode. The engrams with no power level are enhancement cores/catalysts/mods maybe? I forget the full list but it’s most commonly an enhancement core.

No, there's just a way to determine what exotic you get out of an exotic engram that you got from a Legend/Master Lost Sector.
